Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over.

Chapter 350 The strange things Miao Ji said
Miao was stunned. She thought about many possibilities, but she never expected that the problem would arise with Yang Erya.

"What's going on? Did she really stay in Fucheng and live with her aunt?" Mrs. Miao looked surprised, but she did not continue to attack Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou picked at her nails depressedly, "Otherwise, what else can I do? It's not like she crawled out of my belly. She has a grandpa and grandma above her. How can I, a third aunt across the room, force her to do it?"

After saying that, Mrs. Zhou looked at Miao Ji very apologetically, "Good boy, I'm really sorry about this. Auntie is here to apologize to you."

"It's okay, Auntie." Miao Ji smiled warmly. She didn't give Zhou a look because of the failure of the marriage. She even comforted Zhou and made her smile.

After noon, Mrs. Zhou was about to leave. Miao Ji looked at the sky and said goodbye to Mrs. Miao. He also said to Mrs. Zhou: "Auntie, we came by bullock cart. We are on our way back. I can give you a ride. It's just right." We also want to go to Yongshu Village to buy some bricks and tiles, as my father plans to renovate the house after the year.”

Mrs. Zhou nodded repeatedly, "This matter is easy to handle. Come back with me and I will talk to the third child and I can give you a cheaper price."

"Thank you, Auntie." Miao Ji and his sister Miao Xin looked at each other with joy on their faces.

He didn't care about the marriage at all. Not to mention that he had never met Yang Erya. Even if he had met, he didn't think that the marriage would be possible. After all, Miaojia Village was in such a mountainous place, and it was easy for the mountains to collapse when there was a lot of rain. , in every good year, villagers lose their lives inexplicably. Whoever has a better choice of girl will marry into their village.

That is to say, my aunt was trying to avoid the most important things and did not tell Aunt Yang many things. It would be very difficult for him if this marriage happened.

Rather than having that kind of daydream that disappears, it is more practical to spend less money to buy more bricks and tiles. No, his goal is about to be achieved.

The brother and sister drove the borrowed ox cart to deliver Zhou to her door.

Yang Laosan happened to look back from outside. It was getting late. Knowing that the two were relatives of the Zhou family, he immediately kept them at home for the night.

At dinner time.

Zhou was thinking about buying bricks and tiles for the Miao brothers and sisters, so she took the initiative to ask about Yang Laosan's affairs today, "How many of you went out today? Have you found the reason?"

"Don't mention it!" Yang Laosan said with a sad look on his face, "We followed several streams in the village all the way up. We have almost reached the river channel and found nothing unusual. Most likely, we will have to go deeper into the mountains."

There was a bit of surprise on Zhou's face, "How far does it have to go! We don't know how to hunt, and it's not safe in the mountains."

"Yes, uncle, the wild beasts in the mountains have been inexplicably violent recently, and wolves have invaded our village." Miao Ji listened silently and couldn't help but interrupt.

Yang Laosan and others all looked frightened.

Li's voice was trembling when she spoke, "Zhoujiacun is not far from us. The wolves have descended from the mountain? What can we do about this? Do we want to tell the county magistrate?"

"No, no." Miao Xin hurriedly shook her head and explained, "It's not Zhoujia Village, it's Miaojiazhai. Our surname is Miao. We went to my aunt's house to pay New Year greetings during the New Year. I heard that my aunt's sister-in-law, Aunt Zhou's family, sells bricks and tiles. We just happened to want to buy some. Brick and Tie came back with Aunt Zhou." Upon hearing that it was not Zhoujia Village, Mrs. Li was relieved and calmed down a lot, and immediately asked about the situation in Miaojia Village.

Miao Ji said: "Our village is located deep in the mountains on the upper reaches of the Wei River. We originally lived with those wild beasts. However, we each have our own territory. Usually, the water in the well does not interfere with the river. The wolves are very smart and will not enter our territory unless it is absolutely necessary. , I don’t know what’s going on recently, but wolves are often seen near the village.

Wolves are different from other animals. They can hold grudges. If you accidentally kill one, you can attract a group of them. Because the wolves did not attack, we did not dare to take action rashly. During this time, people in the village have been in panic. The village owner thought for a long time and just wanted to Come up with ways to strengthen the walls of the stockade.

Everyone knows that the adobe bricks used in ordinary houses will not last long here. There is a lot of rain and humidity in the mountains, so they usually need to be repaired once a year. Ordinary houses are not that big, but they protect the village. The wall is a big project. Who has the ability to repair it every year? The best way is to use stronger masonry.

Unfortunately, our village is very poor and we can't afford the bricks and tiles in the town. We heard from our aunt that Rongshu Village is the one who makes bricks and tiles, so we came here because of its reputation.

Because we needed a lot of bricks and tiles, the village owner asked us to come out and ask for the price first, and then bring a cart of bricks and tiles back. If the village chief thought it was suitable, he would buy a lot of them. "

Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a while after hearing this. She thought that the Miao brothers and sisters bought bricks and tiles to build their own house. They kept feeling sorry for Yang Erya along the way, but she didn't expect that this was the reason.

It was difficult for her to question the two children in front of her parents-in-law. She was about to raise her head and say something, but saw Old Man Yang narrowing his eyes with a smile.

"So that's what happened! Good boy, since we need it urgently, and you are a relative of my third daughter-in-law, the price is easy to discuss. I will take you to the workshop early tomorrow morning to have a look. I will load a car back first and make sure you want it. If you don't, just send someone over to say it, and we can help you deliver it to your door.

It just takes a while. The water level in our village has dropped sharply for no reason recently. The village chief ordered every household to send people to inspect. If this problem is not resolved, the workshops may not be able to operate normally. "

Old man Yang sometimes felt happy and sometimes sad.

Their workshop uses a lot of water every day, and the winery is almost the same. If the water level drops further, it will directly affect their daily operations.

Miao Ji nodded vigorously and said, "If Grandpa really can't find the reason, maybe you can ask someone to come back to Miao Village with me to have a look."

"Miao Village? What are you looking at?" Monk Yang Lao Sanzhang Er was confused.

Miao Ji said seriously: "You don't know something. Miao Village used to be isolated from the world, with very few contacts with outside villages, and even very few intermarriages. Starting more than ten years ago, many people came from the mountains. They said They want to dig mountains to build temples, and they say they are from the government.

We are all ordinary people. Since they are the government, we can't stop them and can only let them do what they want. Later, when we were digging mountains to build temples and lacked people, they came to our village to recruit people, half voluntarily and half forced, because they had money to earn. There were people visiting every household in the village.

This digging lasted for more than ten years. Everyone heard what was going on outside from those people's mouths, and many people started to think about it. Men began to marry girls outside the village, and girls in the village were also married outside one after another. My aunt It was at that time that she married into Zhoujiacun.

In the past ten years, I couldn't see anything about those people who asked people to dig mountains to build temples. I only know that the mountain they dug was dug very deep, and a Dragon King Temple was built nearby. The deep mountains and old forests are not the banks of rivers and lakes. It is really strange to build the Dragon King Temple.

Of course, we just thought it was strange in the past, but apart from the fact that the Dragon King was enshrined in the temple, there was nothing wrong with it. However, there has been something strange in the mountains recently, and people in the village discovered that something was not right about the Dragon King Temple after investigation. "
